    Demon Drome put on a spectacular show as always.

    Roadster belongs to Nutrocker on here, there are some photos of it at the previous Hayride events http://www.hotrodhayride.com/ or you can find some on his own workshop website

    As for the Hayride, I missed it this year and it looks like this was the unmissable one too!
    Great photos as always Neal
